We host the EMO Hannover, the world’s leading trade fair for production technology, twice in succession in the odd years in Hanover. It is held under the aegis of the European Association of the Machine Tool Industries(Cecimo). Every sixth year, the Italian machine tool association hosts the EMO in Milan. The venue cycle for the EMO is Hanover – Hanover – Milan – Hanover – Hanover – Milan.
